On this years form do not belong in an NRL team with designs on finals. And we have given all multi year first grade contracts.

Hunt is solid and can play centre or wing. Better as a centre these days
Clune is good enough to fill in for injuries, although he gets bagged on here, he did a decent job until he injured his knee which he carried the rest of the year i believe
Tuala is a decent backup winger only
Gamble seems to be our starting halfback, so we are just going to have to see how things go there
the rest we have to get rid of, medically retire them or pray that the super league wants them
Or anything game. Is a competitor though!A half with no kicking game.
Hunt has been injured for a fair chunk of the yearThats the issue - they are back ups, 25-30 on the list... and we are asking them to play key roles.
And I don't get this forum's love of Hymel Hunt. We have played like busteds all year and he didn't get a run - there's something in that.
The more I think about the Gamble signing the less I like it. A half with no kicking game.
but thats the point, they are fine to be 25-30 in the squad until we can find someone better, in my opinion, but anything more than that is the concernThats the issue - they are back ups, 25-30 on the list... and we are asking them to play key roles.

Hence the problem we are currently in, they are more in our top 17 squad, which is really concerning as we apparently don't have much money under the cap
How many new signings that are good enough to make the 17 can we afford?So we looking something like:
1. Miller
2. Young
3. Gagai
4. Best
5. Tuala
6. Ponga
7. Hastings
8. Saifiti
9. Brailey
10. New Signing
11. Frizzell
12. Heitherington
13. Elliot
14. Please lord not Mann
15. Saifiti
16. Croker
17. New Signing
With the likes of Thompson, Sasagi, Fitzgibbon, Mapalangi, Gamble, Clune, Tuala, Crossland, Johns waiting on the sidelines?
I love how Tuala is both in the 17 and also "waiting on the sidelines"So we looking something like:
